Lincoln Corsair 2020-2024 Service Manual / Powertrain / Automatic Transmission / Automatic Transmission - Automatic Transmission – HF45 / Diagnosis and Testing - Diagnosis By Symptom

Symptom Chart

Diagnostics in this manual assume a certain skill level and knowledge of Ford-specific diagnostic practices.
REFER to: Diagnostic Methods (100-00 General Information, Description and Operation).

NOTE: The inverter system controller (ISC) is called the SOBDMC in the scan tool.

In most circumstances the inverter system controller (ISC) sets a DTC to help guide with diagnostics. Before using the Symptom Chart,
REFER to: Automatic Transmission (307-01B Automatic Transmission - Automatic Transmission – HF45, Diagnosis and Testing).
. The Condition column lists the vehicle condition. The Action column refers to a pinpoint test. Each pinpoint test lists the possible symptoms and the components that can cause each symptom. The components are listed in order of disassembly. Use the list of components and the required action to identify the root cause of the concern.

Condition Action
Rattle - occurs at idle or at light acceleration from a stop   GO to Pinpoint Test A
Whine - pitch increases with vehicle speed   GO to Pinpoint Test B
Clunk - occurs when shifting from PARK to a DRIVE or REVERSE position   GO to Pinpoint Test C
Bump - occurs when shifting from PARK to a DRIVE or REVERSE position. Similar to clunk but with no sound   GO to Pinpoint Test D
Groan, drone, and/or shudder of vehicle on moderate acceleration and/or during regen braking   GO to Pinpoint Test E
Whine noise during acceleration and deceleration with engine on or off   GO to Pinpoint Test F
Powertrain Droning Type Noise - ANC   GO to Pinpoint Test G
